High Speed Can Opener

All-In-One Process

Feed, wash, open, dump, rinse, and crush at one operator station. Once the cans are fed through the screws and opened, they are processed through our fully equipped dump stations. Each dump station is configured to flow into the elevated can twist and chute, emptying the contents of the can. Once the can is inverted, the elevated twist chute vibrates to ensure all contents make it into the dump area, which has a magnetic grate to collect excess metal shavings. Fixed nozzles washout the cans before they enter the crusher.

Crushing your empty cans offers additional cost-saving benefits. Now your output can be recycled. Crushed cans don’t typically incur a hauling cost since they have a value for their weight, offsetting the removal of the load.
